Mariah Carey fought back tears as she performed her 1992 cover of The Jackson 5’s classic ballad “I’ll Be There” at today’s public memorial celebrating the life of the late Michael Jackson.

Backed up by a church choir, the duet with Trey Lorenz began just after Jackson’s golden casket was placed in front of the Staples Center stage.

    Seriously, what was that? That was by far her worst performance ever. She tried to hard to once again be what she is not. She needs to just be herself. On to other things, MJ will be missed by many of us. There will never be another entertainer like MJ. He was the best!!

    I wish people would leave Mariah alone. There is no question the lady has skills. No, it wasnt her greatest performance, but how well do u think u would have done under those circumstances? It was an extremely emotional moment, cut her some slack! R.I.P Michael…We will always love you! You’ll be greatly missed!!!

    People would have thought worse of her if she had delivered an ‘unaffected’ performance. There is no winning. Society has turned into a bunch of vipers just waiting to strike over any imperfections imagined or not.

What do you think?
